Engine tune-ups in Zion
Spark plugs, ignition, filters and fuel system for smoother running.
Short answer: A modern tune-up replaces the parts your vehicle maker lists at the current mileage, usually spark plugs, filters and sometimes ignition coils, and checks the fuel and ignition systems.

Why it matters around Zion
Short trips around town in cold weather are hard on spark plugs and fuel systems because the engine rarely warms up fully. If most of your driving is under ten minutes, ask us whether your vehicle is due for a tune-up.
Questions and answers
How often do I need a tune-up?
There is no single answer anymore. Many spark plugs now last a long time, while filters need more frequent replacement. We follow the schedule for your vehicle.
Will a tune-up fix a misfire?
Sometimes. A misfire can come from a plug, a coil, an injector, a vacuum leak or low compression. We test to find which one before replacing parts.
Does a tune-up improve gas mileage?
If worn plugs or dirty filters are hurting efficiency, replacing them helps. We will tell you what we find.
